A portrait of one of the 90 Holden F48 class medium-size 0-6-0s in the extensive yard of Stratford Locomotive Depot: No. 65507 was built in 10/1900 as No. 1157, becoming LNER J16 No. 8157 (No. 5507 from 1946), rebuilt to J17 in 2/23 and survived until 9/61. (Cleaning of Stratford's numerous freight engines was out of the question).
